This year I wondered if Old Girls would like to have the Picnic chez Michael&me, as we are right in the middle of the country. I'm so delighted that loads of the girls have said yes! We've been making a plan on Facebook for either of the first two Saturdays in July if any non-Facebook Forumites would like to come? July 5 is the most popular date so far.

We live in Marchington, Staffordshire, very near Uttoxeter... Derby...

Lawn on which to picnic, three loos, cups of tea? I know July is so far away, but everyone is already pencilling in their year!
